| 摘要： | With the contract awarded for a new drydock and one of its existing drydocks recently refurbished, the Ensley Engineer Yard expects to improve efficiency in its maintenance and repair of federal fleets. The yard, located at Mile 726 on the Lower Mississippi River in Memphis, Tenn., is one of two shipyards that service federal vessels. It is the only federal shipyard on the inland waterways. Clients regularly include vessels owned by the Corps of Engineers, Coast Guard and Tennessee Valley Authority. Ensley includes two 400-ton drydocks and a 3,200-ton drydock. Plans call for the 400-ton drydock 1015, built around 1930, to be replaced with a 1,600-ton modern unit that will go into service next year, said Andrea Williams, acting operations chief of the Memphis Engineer District. More than 300 Corps employees work at the yard, one of the busiest in the nation, with drydock scheduling currently into 2024. The yard has its own full-service metals unit, which has welders, machinists and fitters. It also has a carpentry-shop and electricians on staff, along with drydock operators, forklift operators, mechanics and crane onerators. |
